Monkey trouble for residents at Abertillery care home

Residents at a Welsh care home received some special visitors over the August bank holiday weekend.

Two squirrel monkeys made the trip to Pen-y-Bont care home in Abertillery, Blaenau Gwent, to bring some joy to those living there and their families.

It’s not the first time exotic animals have visited the site – alpacas, snakes and birds have been some of the biggest hits with residents.

The visit was funded by Les Metcalf, whose father received palliative care at the care home before he died.
